    Generative AI is really causing a negative association with AI in general to the point where a proper rebranding is probably in order.

      Generative AI is part to AI. And it has its own merits. Very big merits. Like or not it is a milestone on the field. That it is mostly hated not because it doesn’t work but because it does.

      If generative AI could not create images the way it does I assure you we wouldn’t have the legion of etsy and patreon painters complaining about it.

      The nobel prize is not to generative AI, of course, it’s about the fathers of the fields and their complex neural networks that made most advanced since then possible.

        It has been called like that since the 50s were it could do literally nothing because computer power wasn’t enough. It is the field that leads to an artificially created intelligence. We never had any issues with the name. No need for a rebrand.

          What we call AI today is also not going to evolve into an actual AI.

          You can call the field of research what you want, but the current products are not AI. Do you also call potatoes vodka?
